Starry Night

Hi everybody!

Hope you are having a good week. I am not able to share my swap tags today, as they have not yet arrived here - perhaps they are taking the scenic route....I will post them as soon as they come!

 Our theme this week is 'starry skies'. I thought of Van Gogh straightaway, and decided to do something in his style, at least a pale imitation of it. I had a square of paper painted with dark blues left over from last week, so went to work, and drew a similar picture freehanded, putting in some of the elements VG uses. I used black ink, pastels, felt pens and a fine, white highlighter. Then I could have kicked myself in the butt, because I remembered it should be a TAG! So, I hacked it into three pieces, mounted them onto gold card, and made a triptych 'starry night'.

 

 

 

As I write this the stars are twinkling above me, and the moon is shining bright - very fitting!

Have a good week, take care, and hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!
